New in Newton: Automated Job Approval

Automated Job Approval features aren’t a new thing. We’ve decided it’s high time to make the job approval process better. We’re excited to announce the arrival Newton’s Automated Job Approval feature, the latest addition to our popular corporate applicant tracking software.

First, we have something to admit. This was the hardest feature for us to design to date. We’ve been redesigning and enhancing this feature for nearly a year. We could have shipped our original design months ago, most vendors would have so they could add Job Approval to their feature matrix ASAP. Instead, as with all of the enhancements we make to Newton, we wanted this feature to work great.

3 reasons to love Newton’s Automated Job Approval feature.

1. Easy for Hiring Managers and Approvers

What we’ve learned is that when applicant tracking software achieves something valuable without being distracting or requiring hours of training, only then will it live up to its potential. The 80/20 rule applies here: we want to do well what 80 percent of your users do all the time and together we will create a great user experience that promotes adoption. With Newton’s Job Approval feature, managers can simply login and request to get a job approved with a few simple steps. And, job approvers will love the easy approval process: Green is go. Red is no.

2. Ultimate Flexibility

Hiring is dynamic. Your tools need to be flexible. Newton’s email driven Job Approval Process is the most flexible on the market. Some companies don’t really want to reinvent the wheel. They have a ‘requisition form’ that works well and they just need a vehicle to expedite and track the actual process. We do that. Some organizations want to start over and create an optimized automated requisition process. We do that too.

3. Ultimate Visibility

If you know anything about Newton Software, you know that we are the ones that bring transparency and visibility to corporate recruiting programs. If you don’t know us, we used to be corporate recruiters and we understand that having visibility into all aspects of the recruiting process is not only critical – it’s power. True to form, we’ve provided our users with a dashboard that allows them to see where all their approvals are in real-time. Anything less would be…..annoying.
